Fate and transport of tetracycline and ciprofloxacin and impact on nitrate reduction activity in coastal sediments from the Seine Estuary, France

Résumé

Fluoroquinolones and tetracyclines are frequently detected antibiotics in aquatic sediments. In this study, the transport of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and tetracycline (TET) was investigated in sediments from the Seine Estuary (France), under nitrate reducing conditions. Dynamic flow experiments showed that although TET and CIP strongly interacted with the sediment components through adsorption and (bio)-chemical transformation, they kept their antimicrobial activities. Less nitrate reduction was observed during the first period of breakthrough, while TET and CIP were absent in the column effluent. Batch experiments with freeze-dried vs fresh sediments showed that adsorption and abiotic degradation are the major removal processes, while microbe-driven transformation is of less importance. Whereas TET is to a large extent chemically transformed and little adsorbed in the sediment, CIP was less transformed and more adsorbed, most likely due to the great reactivity of TET with redox-active mineral surfaces. Our findings show the strong capacity of natural sediment to retain and transform antibiotics, while still maintaining their antimicrobial activity or inhibitory effect of nitrate reducing activity.
